Acuity Business Solutions and Hillmann Consulting Awarded Deltek’s Partner Project Excellence Award

November 18, 2014

Acuity-SNBS-Logo-webYork, PA – Acuity Business Solutions and Hillmann Consulting received top honors for their outstanding achievements in improving business processes and performance, driving compliance, increasing profitability and winning new business at the 2014 Deltek Insight User Conference.

The premier, annual industry event was held in Florida last week for project-based professional services professionals. Deltek has recognized some of the most innovative, market-leading companies in the world with its Project Excellence Awards program.

Chris Hillmann, President of Hillmann Consulting, brought Acuity Business Solutions, a Deltek Premier Partner into his firm to help streamline business management processes.  The firm was growing rapidly and struggling with accounting, billing and project management efficiencies. Hillmann had been using a very old and outdated system called CAMIS (Customs Accounting and Management Information System) for about twenty years.  CAMIS required many manual and redundant efforts including numerous spreadsheets and duplicate data entry.

“Purchasing and utilizing Deltek was a key strategic initiative for Hillmann.  Acuity helped us define our challenges and requirements, and worked closely to develop new business processes that utilize the Vision system to position us for efficiency, profitability and continued growth.” – Chris Hillmann, President, Hillmann Consulting

Hillmann Consulting purchased both the Deltek Vision First Essentials software package and Vision Customer Relationship Management (CRM).  Implementation of the Deltek Vision First Essentials and CRM system has dramatically improved the firm’s operations. Workflows, along with other custom integrations, has reduced redundant data entry, allowing the firm to win more business. The Project Managers at Hillmann Consulting can access reports in real-time, thus improving firm performance.
